Angela’s Minis- Cypress Ashes by Kai Butler and Craving in His Blood by Zoey Draven

August 11, 2023 by Angela 1 Comment

Cypress Ashes by Kai ButlerSan Amaro Investigations #7LGBTQ+ PNR/Fantasy RomanceJune 19, 2023- Self-PublishedKindle Unlimited This was one of my most anticipated reads of the year, the finale for a truly fabulous fantasy series. This series has everything- old gods, saints, werewolves, dragons, witches of every kind, the fae, and a local private investigator and his detective lover out to save the world. The individual mysteries are just plot lines in a bigger series arc that is Continue Reading

Review: Saffron Wilds by Kai Butler

March 10, 2023 by Angela 2 Comments

Saffron Wilds by Kai ButlerSan Amaro Investigations #6LGBTQ Urban FantasyFebruary 28, 2023 - Self Published Review by Angela This is such a fantastic urban fantasy series, that in my opinion, does not get enough attention. Saffron Wilds is the sixth book in the San Amaro Investigations series featuring Parker Ferro, a man who wears many hats... private investigator, consultant for the local police department, and The Windrose to the fae. Parker and his lover, now fiancee, Continue Reading

Angela’s Minis- Duke Most Wicked by Lenora Bell and The Heart’s Blood Arrow by Kai Butler

December 7, 2022 by Angela Leave a Comment

Duke Most Wicked by Lenora BellWallflowers vs. Rogues #3Historical Romance09/27/22 by AvonARC For some reason, every book in this series has been a slow read for me. Maybe it's the low angst, maybe it's the pacing... I'm not quite sure. It took me a month and a half to finally dig in and finish reading. This is the story of the Duke of Westbury and his sister's music teacher, Viola Beaton. Westbury is rogue and a scoundrel and a wastrel. He pretty much gambles, drinks, and Continue Reading

Angela’s Minis- What Moves the Dead by T. Kingfisher and A Shattered Silver Crown by Kai Butler

July 28, 2022 by Angela 1 Comment

What Moves the Dead by T. KingfisherHorror/FantasyJuly 12, 2022 by Tor NightfireARC T. Kingfisher is known for fantasy and more recently, romantic fantasy, but I believe her horror novels and novellas to be some of her best work. This retelling of Poe's The Fall of the House of Usher is creepy and chilling and well done. Our narrator for this story is retired Lieutenant Alex Easton, who is summoned to the Usher estate by their childhood friend Roderick, on behalf of his dying sister Continue Reading

Angela’s Minis- KU Reading Update

August 12, 2021 by Angela 1 Comment

Rogue Ghosts & Other Miscreants (The Guild Codex: Warped Book 3) by Annette Marie and Rob Jacobsen- Another great book in this world. The Guild Codex; Warped features Kit and his partner, Lienna, and this time they are put on a top-secret kidnapping case by their captain. And it's to track down the criminal known as The Ghost, aka the Crystal Druid, aka Zak. I feel like this is a pivotal book in this series and this world. Readers not only get to see Kit and Lienna, but Zak plays a huge Continue Reading
